Note that the LEAF is currently rated at 84 mile EPA range, not 75. Taking that into account, and if you look at the actual price people are likely to pay post tax incentives, the LEAF currently has the lowest cost per range mile of those three EVs. Cheers, -Jamie > On Mon, Jul 7, 2014 at

Good points, and no arguments here on using EPA range for the sake of camparison even though YMMV. However the actual consumer cost of each EV is post tax incentive, which, to make an accurate comparison, cannot be ignored. Purchase cost per mile range is a useful metric for comparison when

I don't know if your metric is the right one to use, but for the Tesla, I think that using the 85 kWh battery as a more robust solution is what I would use. Using your method of calculation, it also compares favorably. ~356 ($94390/265) Sent from my iPhone > On Jul 7, 2014, at 9:53 AM, brucedp
